Linebacker favors Vince Young

IRVING – Titans linebacker Keith Bulluck told Sirius NFL Radio that he would like to see Vince Young start at quarterback rather than Kerry Collins.

“Kerry Collins has the experience and he’s played a lot of football in this league, but Vince is hungry,” Bulluck said. “He has that drive that will definitely inspire a lot of people on his side of the ball. Of course, he’ll make mistakes because he is a rookie. But if we’re losing, we might as well go with the future.”

Collins has started the first three games for the Titans (0-3) and has thrown for six interceptions and one touchdown. Young, the former Texas star, did not play in last week’s loss to Miami but played in the first two games.

“He brings energy to the whole team and that’s something that we need,” Bulluck said of Young. “And it’s definitely nothing against Kerry Collins. He’s played great football, and he’s been in a tough spot to come here and just be thrust into the starting position, not even really spending any camp at all in the playbook. I definitely take my hat off to him.

“But, I don’t know, I don’t think he’ll be here next year, and I know Vince Young is the No. 3 pick. I’m trying to get things started because I don’t know how much longer I’m playing football for. So we need to get this process and this show on the road because we have guys here with great talent that want to win.”
